How things are made has always impacted how we see the quality of an image. The end result is not what people care about it. Art has never been an objective thing and does not live in a vacuum. Any method that is lazily done becomes viewed as poor quality no matter the medium
And in this case it’s extra strong with all the other effects from AI get associated with it as well. So all the job loss, pollution from diesel backup generators, higher energy usage, control of our lives from tech companies, etc.

Uh roommate must have predicted the future because this is about a private key for a certificate authority using the number “4” as their whole private key. As well as a couple other low digit numbers

No reasons at at like that really if you think about it
To produce 1 kg of protein from kidney beans required approximately eighteen times less land, ten times less water, nine times less fuel, twelve times less fertilizer and ten times less pesticide in comparison to producing 1 kg of protein from beef

There are environmental and ethical reasons to do this. Not just cost

I’m not sure that’s such a great moral logic given that this also applies to human children

“swap beans for meat” is a valid way to say “beans instead of meat”

So true

“for” usually means the first thing is replacing the second. If it said “with” than it’d go the other way

There are things that are in a tofu like shape. I’ve bought pre-made Chickpea Tofu at the store before though it has a very different texture and taste than soy based tofu. I’ve also heard of Pumfu (Pumpkin Seed Tofu) as a thing you can buy. Looking it up there’s a ton more that I hadn’t heard of like fava bean, split yellow pea, split green pea, pigeon tofu, red lentil, sunflower seed, and more though I’d assume those you’d probably have to make it yourself instead of being able to buy?

Tragic on the bean front, but there are some other good plants worth trying
If you can have wheat & gluten, give Seitan a try! Super high protein and kind of meaty taste
Quina, potatoes, chia, hemp, pumpkin seeds, mycoprotein (from mushrooms) are also worth using too! As well as stuff like oatmilk of course too

Yeah English prepositions can be a little weird sometimes like that

Don’t worry if we all switch to something woker like Tofu, we just might avoid this fate

I might be contributing to both sides of this

The people saying it in good faith mean it takes time to build a coalition to actually get change through despite the powers that be fighting hard against it
The people saying it in bad faith are the powerful people making it take a long time

I’m not sure if you mean this in like animal rights kind of way or like “I really fucking love beans” kind of way. Or both?
- Comment on Continuing both the "this vegan shit easy" and bean trend on here 1 month ago:
So like this then?

Of course, of course

It’s actually cheaper in the US, to note. The lowest income groups in the US are the one exactly the most likely to be vegan or plant-based
- Comment on Grilled is the best 1 month ago:
Even with subsidies, it’s still cheaper if you compare to whole-plant based diets and real world spending data. It’s only the pre-made plant-based meats and similar that are more expensive because they don’t yet have the same economies of scale
Seems like you are from Italy based on your instance? Studies have found overall costs lower in Italy for plant-based diets
- Comment on Grilled is the best 1 month ago:
The lowest income groups are actually the most likely to be vegan and eat the least meat, dairy, etc. around the world. The lowest income countries eat the least animal products
